RFA raffles original Maine artwork as fundraiser

RANGELEY — The Rangeley Friends of the Arts is raffling original artwork to support the mission of the RFA.
The works are on display at the Lakeside Contemporary Gallery in the lobby of the RFA Lakeside Theater, and raffle tickets can be bought at the theater’s box office.

The prizes include a a set of embellished moose antlers, created by local entrepreneur and antiques aficionado Carolyn Smith. She designed the antler set around the beauty of the 100-year-old antique frame.
The drawing for the antlers will be on Monday, Aug. 20th, during the last night of the performance of “Self-Storage: The Contents of Our Lives.”
The second piece to be raffled is a watercolor, “Continuum,” donated by the artist, Pamela Jo Ellis. The image depicts Rangeley Lake on a calm day when the water is perfectly clear, looking along the Eastshore to Spotted Mountain in the North.
Tickets for the painting will also be on sale at Art in August – the outdoor show and sale on Aug. 2 in Oquossoc Park.
The drawing for the painting will be on Tuesday, Sept. 25, during the RFA’s 50th anniversary party.
